The Return

With a 60 day DL stint behind him Joe Mauer returns to the Twins today. Mauer’s presence should help a struggling Twins offense. Mauer will most likely play a lot of DH to begin with, but with interleague starting catcher isn’t out of the question. So time to put him in your lineup as Mauer is a must start in any league until he proves otherwise. For Mauer owners i still recommend holding on to your replacement for a bit just in case he has any set backs. If you happen to have a hot catcher as your replacement a trade is not out of the question I suggest targeting owners who own catchers like the struggling Carlos Santana, also owners who were hit with the season ending injury to Buster Posey.
